I had a lot of trouble getting to the "bluetooth" screen because the posted instructions from BMW, and copied here above, are just not accurate enough (therefore wrong) I had two trips to the stealer over this very issue and got quite pissed before it got resolved.
There is one missing step that I will photograph for those of us that care. otherwise it paired up no problem with my Razr V3 :wow: :P I have attached a few flies that are helpful for bluetooth/voice/NAV some have see before Jeff |
Yes, please post your updated info. Anything that clarifies the process is welcomed.

Hi folks,
Many thanks for the useful FAQ. Just like some other users I don't have a Bluetooth option in the communication settings screen. I have a 2004 545i. Does this mean I am out of luck and cannot use BT phone? I do have a printed card with a Passkey card. Or is there an upgrade that BMW can provide? I must admit that I am pretty frustrated with the lack of guidance from BMW in this regard. I have recently had the car in for service for 10 days because I was told that the 545i is the "nemesis" of the service center because it is such a complicated car. Anyway, if any of you can shed some light I'd appreciate it. Cheers, Mike |
